This chapter focuses on the adverse effects of air pollution on the developing brain and discusses the evidence from human and animal studies suggesting that exposure to elevated air pollution during pre- and early postnatal development is associated with a number of behavioral and biochemical adverse effects.
In this review paper, we highlight the health implications associated with climate change in Afghanistan and discuss preventive measures to tackle the climate-associated adverse health conditions in the future.
This article ties to SDG 3. This study compares the long-term associations of sexual and non-sexual physical violence with psychological distress. In addition, it explores associations of sexual and physical violence with perceptions of self and others.
This Article supports SDGs 3, 5, and 10 by evaluating the safety and efficacy of injectable cabotegravir versus daily oral tenofovir diphosphate plus emtricitabine for HIV prevention in HIV-uninfected women across sub-Saharan Africa.
An Article in support of SDG 3, evaluating conditions under which risk-informed pre-exposure prophylaxis use would be cost-effective in sub-Saharan Africa.
